Set-Cookie header not setting cookie in Chrome

Question

I'm AJAXing a call to a another services API, which is then supposed to return a cookie that will be set in my browser to allow me to make the rest of my API calls.

However, while the response headers include a 'Set-Cookie' header, no cookie is ever actually set. I'm using Google Chrome.

Here is the Response Headers:

Access-Control-Allow-Origin:* Cache-Control:no-cache Connection:keep-alive Content-Encoding:gzip Content-Length:37 Content-Type:application/json Date:Thu, 25 Jun 2015 18:27:37 GMT Expires:Thu, 25 Jun 2015 18:27:36 GMT Server:nginx/1.4.6 (Ubuntu) Set-Cookie:sessionid=67cb9796aa794a4975b28876ea6dd3d5; expires=Thu, 09-Jul-2015 18:27:37 GMT; httponly; Max-Age=1209600; Path=/ Vary:Cookie

And here is the AJAX call:

$.ajax({ type: "POST", crossDomain: true, contentType: 'text/plain', data: data, url: urlhere success: function(result, status, xhr){ console.log('hi'); console.log(xhr.getAllResponseHeaders()); }, error: function(xhr){ console.log(xhr.status); console.log(xhr.statusText); } });

The Chrome resources page also shows that no cookie is being set. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!

You need to append withCredentials to your XHR call, this answer shows how to do that with jQuery. https://stackoverflow.com/a/7190487 Without that additional flag, the browser will not accept a set-cookie header.
